You know, I am going through some stressful things right now, have opted into living with a friend and his family for reasons, and frequently have to retreat from people. But their kids don't trigger me. Neither do their animals.

What is your theory why? I would really like to hear what other people think, or if this is not a universal experience? Is there an age where it wears off?

@Urban_Hermit Well, I'm 65, and I still run to my sister from another gene pool of nearly 50 years. The only thing that's worn off after all this time is the need to question why. Be at peace and enjoy the time spent there.
